Did you know…
- EPA studies indicate that the air inside the home may contain up to 10 times more pollution than the outside air.
- Indoor air pollution can irritate the eyes, nose, and throat, cause headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and aggravate asthma and allergy symptoms.
- Even common household items pollute the air you breathe including:
- Human skin flakes
- Pollen and spores
- Viruses, bacteria, and fungus
- Pet dander
- Tobacco and wood smoke
- Cooking smoke and grease
- Chemical fumes by household cleaners
- Some of these particles that pollute the air in your home are too small to be caught by a standard system filter.
- A standard system filter has one function; to keep larger particles from damaging the heating and cooling equipment, but they allow the smaller particles to pass through.
- All of these smaller particles accumulated in your system can result in a potential increase in energy bills and maintenance costs.
